A Dying Heart

The pain grips me It steals my life away Just like a parasite or a leech Drop by drop it steals my essence away. I'm begging you to save me Because I know you’re up there. Stop this faulty heart Take away the snare. A quick one Very sudden and clear Take me up to heaven Take me to my home. It’s not of love I suffer But of vacancy and fear For I don’t know when My beating heart will someday stop my dear. It’s not of lovers that I am jealous But of their loyal hearts, Which I wish belonged to me But wishes are something That are never to be had. Only to be feared. I see the golden light Feeling so eerily free. I walk by the heavenly moonlight. And will walk for all eternity. BY Amanda.M.Miller
